Coding

Exciting examples and interesting insights

Intro

This website is my digital portfolio and at the same time an example of my
skills as a developer. It has been built in Laravel specifically to be able to define API's
for passing JSON to Vue JS. This combined with the proper authentication techniques deployed
by
Laravel makes it easy for me to change and update the pages through a CMS structure that can
work on a single page depending on your authentication status. The skills below for instance
can be clicked and opened to reveal extra info to a user, but
after being logged in the can accommodate an interactive preview layer that allows you to
drag and update the content.

As I have become more adept at deploying MVC setups in various languages, I have greatly come
to appreciate the modularity and cleanliness of the code it yields. At first it may seem
daunting to code a CMS like the one I built for this page, but as you delve deeper and
deeper and develop more code you really start to realize the brilliance and clairvoyance of
the people that make these frameworks. From Ruby on Rails to Spring to Laravel to Django,
simply browsing their file and folder structure on GitHub can give you great insights into
the solutions that experts have solved for us.

Besides from this site itself you can also click below to see a few examples of projects I
have developed or contributed to, some of them are not accessible to the public so a
screencapture has had to suffice. Also above there is a link to GitHub to see a few things I am
currently working on, along with the code for the application you are in right now...

Keepy Uppy

A small interactive game I came up with to illustrate the possibility
of combining the VueJS framework with the PopMotion.io animation library.

Muziekweb Intro's

Discovering new music whilst learning about the rich history the
collection of Muziekweb houses is the key of the Muziekweb Intro's.

Filmbieb Touchbrowser

The Filmbieb touchbrowser is a touch focussed interface I built with
the team at Muziekweb to allow visitors in the library to easily discorver video's.

Xerte Tracking

A tracking plugin I built for an open source education platform. This
project got me to get properly to grips woth GET, POST and Ajax. Also introduced me too
the great chart.js library.

Vue Clock

An interesting exercise in making radial patterns in Illustrator and juggling time with the Date object in JS.
